The magical Thames

All the streets of Buenos Aires fall in love, but there is one that knew how to stand out and reach the eyes and ears of the critics who chose the thirty coolest streets in the world. Thames is the artery that connects Palermo with Villa Crespo, two elegant, glamorous and avant-garde neighborhoods.

With an extension of more than a kilometer and a half, Thames Street offers a wide variety of cultural and gastronomic expressions, as well as various architectural and tourist attractions. In its extensive route you can find endless places of food, clothing, shoes, decoration and appliances. In addition, it has one of the most important gastronomic circuits, with bars and restaurants that combine design and high-quality national and international cuisine.



If there is a place that reflects the spirit of Thames Street, that is Mercat: a gourmet market with 27 stores that became a meeting point for chefs, food lovers and neighbors who seek to acquire and taste delicacies from different parts of the world. . Outside Mercat, cultures also coexist in total harmony. Anyone with a craving for Armenian food can stop at Sarkis, a still life with hearty dishes, including tabouleh salads, fried keppe and rice pilaf. Do you feel like tacos or churros? Juan Pedro Caballero is the right place. A local whim? then there is no like Chori, a choripanería at the step. And for those days when you don't really know what you want, Las Pizarras: a small bistro without a menu where the daily menu, prepared with seasonal foods, is displayed on the small blackboards that decorate the place. Now, if the desire is to drink, the obligatory appointment is at the Tres Monos bar, where they make a few signature drinks of the highest level that position it as one of the best bars in the world.

Thames was highlighted by the British magazine Time Out, which produced a list of the 30 coolest streets based on the opinions of the residents of each city through a global survey. What captivates about Thames is its diversity, style and innovative and high-end cuisine, which is the main attraction for visitors.
